Lay to win!Cannon fodder, he has become the chief assistant

Chapter 135 He Yi
The news of Xie Xiuwen's understanding of Yuan naturally quickly spread throughout the city. After Wang Jin heard the news, he immediately came over to congratulate him.

Wang Jin's results this time are not bad, he won the [-]th place. If he fights hard next year, he may have a chance.

This time Fucheng selected 69 candidates, and Fan Xing won [-]. Although he was selected as a candidate, he himself was not happy.

With such a ranking, it is conceivable that next year's examination will be hopeless.

Xie Xiuwen and Wang Jin attended the Luming Banquet together. Since he already had a wife, he tried his best to keep a low profile and did not want to attract attention.

However, what to be afraid of.

After drinking for three rounds, an adult tried again and again, obviously intending to recruit him as his son-in-law.

Xie Xiuwen had no choice but to have a wife and family, and he had both children, so he really didn't dare to climb higher.

Such rhetoric naturally made several officials feel a little regretful.

It's rare to see such a young talent. It's a pity that since they have a family, it is impossible for them to make their own daughter a concubine, and they can't do the matter of forcing Yuan Gong to divorce his wife.

On the contrary, Shi, the head of the Protectorate House, pressed him repeatedly. After Xie Xiuwen politely refused twice, he was really a little impatient. At this moment, Zhao Yue appeared.

That Chang Shi was an official from the fifth grade, and he also had a background in the imperial examination. He originally wanted to recruit Xie Xiuwen as his son-in-law, but as for the country woman, he just quit.

But even with Zhao Yue intervening, he didn't dare to mention it any more.

However, he still looked at Xie Xiuwen twice more.

After all, he really couldn't think of it, one is a boy from Gaoyang County, and the other is the son of a nobleman in Beijing. How did these two get connected?
Fan Xing also participated in this Lu Ming Banquet. The status of the Fan family in Fucheng has declined sharply now. In the previous corruption case, the Fan family was also implicated. Fortunately, Fan's father acted quickly and spent a lot of money. Finally, he saved his reputation.

Because of this, Fan Xing did not dare to be arrogant outside, and acted a lot more low-key than before.

This time, Mingshan Academy has a total of 17 people on the list, once again becoming the focus of the whole city.

"As expected of a student taught by Mr. Xu, he is indeed knowledgeable and insightful."

"Yes, the students taught by someone like Mr. Xu must have a big pattern. I don't know how many people will be named on the gold list next year."

After Xie Xiuwen participated in the Luming Banquet, he was going back to his hometown to prepare for the next year's exam.

Zhao Yue also mentioned to him the plan to go to Beijing together, Xie Xiuwen was naturally very grateful and thanked him again and again.

Xiejiazhuang's afternoon was originally quiet, but at this hour, most people were resting at home, preparing to go to work in the fields again, when suddenly there was a sound of gongs and drums, which naturally alarmed the villagers.

Grandma Xie has been counting the days at home, and her mood has obviously improved in the past two days.

Counting the days, the rankings should have been released the day before yesterday. If the second child had passed the middle school, there must have been news back, but there has been no movement until now, presumably it must have failed.

Because of this, Grandma Xie felt a big stone in her heart, and felt a lot more relaxed, and her appetite improved a lot for two days in a row.

Grandpa Xie was on the contrary. He was somewhat disappointed that he had not been able to wait for the good news at such a late hour.

As the third son, Xie Xiuwen's expectation of honoring the lintel has always been on Xie Xiuwen, and now that he has not seen good news for a long time, he naturally has a bit of resentment in his heart.

After studying in Mingshan Academy for a year, isn't it a success?
The old couple had their own thoughts, Grandma Xie knew that the old man had been looking forward to the high school of the second child, so no matter how happy he was in his heart at this time, he dared not show it.

Hearing the sound of gongs and drums outside, Mr. Xie's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that there is good news?

After waiting for a while to make sure that the sound of gongs and drums was getting closer and closer to home, Mr. Xie became very happy.

He had just arrived at the front hall when Xie Laifu rushed in.

"Congratulations Uncle! My brother Xiuwen won the Juren, and now I am the master Juren!"

In one sentence, the atmosphere of the entire Xie family was brightened.

It was the servants of the county government who came to announce the good news.

Looking at this posture, if it was just an ordinary Juren master, he would definitely not be so grandiose.

After inviting people in, Grandpa Xie discovered that it was Boss Liu and another master in official uniform.

"Congratulations Uncle, congratulations Uncle. I knew Yuan Gong in the text, and our county magistrate couldn't get away for a while, so he sent me and Master Bo for a special trip. This is the 100 taels of silver specially given by the county magistrate as a congratulatory gift."

The county magistrate is very happy!

During his tenure, there was a Jie Yuangong, which should be counted in his political achievements.

In the future, his promotion or transfer back to the capital will all be a merit.

Originally, he wanted to come in person, but his wife gave birth at home, so he was really worried, so the county magistrate and the master Bo were sent to come.

"Thank you, my nephew, please tell the county magistrate for me, Caomin and others are very grateful."

"This is a reward of 200 taels of silver specially approved by the county magistrate to give to Xie Juren. After all, it can be regarded as a win for our Gaoyang County students."

A total of 300 taels of silver, Grandma Xie watched eagerly.

Although she didn't want Xie Xiuwen to be promoted, but looking at the 300 taels of silver, she didn't want all of them to fall into the hands of Erfang.

It's just that Liu Ruolan is here now, and the one who sent it was Liu's brother-in-law, no matter how poor Mr. Xie was, he would not be greedy for this money.

"Second brother, you should take this money for Xiuwen first. When you go to Beijing to take the exam next year, you will have to spend it."

"Yes, father."

After saluting, Liu Ruolan was ordered to take the silver.

Grandma Xie was so angry that her breathing became short of breath, after sending everyone away, she naturally brought up the matter of money again.

Now that Liu Ruolan has a son by her side, she is no longer as low-browed as she used to be, and she is not short of money now, so naturally she doesn't want to have any more disputes with her in-laws because of this.

"Father, there are a total of 300 taels of silver, of which 100 taels are the congratulations of the county magistrate. It is better to put the 100 taels in the public house for the time being. After all, the husband will go to Beijing to rush for the exam in the future. If there are some relationships in the family, you will have to rely on the eldest brother and the third brother."

Liu Ruolan said this openly, Grandpa Xie also felt that she hadn't accepted all the money, which was very sensible.

"Forget it. 200 taels of silver should be enough for the second child to go to Beijing for the exam."

"Alright, when you come to Beijing in the future, don't beg for money from me, an old lady."

Grandma Xie knew that at this point, the old man would definitely let the second child go to Beijing, but she was not in a hurry, she had no objection now, anyway, the second child would not come to Beijing until two or three months later, and when she was seriously ill again, she was not afraid that they would not hand over the money.

Liu Ruolan also looked at her mother-in-law in surprise, why are you so talkative today?
